Chapter 41 Section 6

The taxi came to Qingshan Avenue.Kato told the driver the specific route, and got off the car when he was approaching Omotesando.After confirming the address, he looked up at the row upon row of tall buildings while walking. He stopped in front of a silver-gray building.The metal signal board on the outside is revealed.There are several companies inside, and BLUE SNOW is on the fourth floor. Kato got on the elevator and came to the fourth floor. The entrance to BLUE SNOW has a glass door.The office seems to double as an exhibition hall, and several showcases can be seen inside.Kato walked in.Opposite the showcase is a desk with seven employees working, all of them women.

"Welcome!" The long-haired woman sitting in front greeted with a smile, she looked about twenty years old. Kato took out his business card. "I want to see Ms. Xinhai." When the front desk lady saw the title on the business card, her eyes widened immediately: "Have you made an appointment yet?" "No. Just tell Xinhai that I was responsible for the investigation of what happened in Huawu two years ago, and she will probably understand." She seemed to hesitate a bit, then said "please wait a moment" and disappeared behind the door inside. While waiting, Kato looked at the showcase next to him.There are rings and other jewelry inside. It seems that they are not for sale, but for introducing products.Kato knew nothing about precious metals.A few days ago, he learned from Sakuragi that the company's products use special technology.

"Is there anything you are interested in?" The woman next to him asked. "It's so beautiful." He looked at the showcase and said, "This is the first time I've seen a ring with a double-layer structure like this gemstone." "This is our company's patent." She said proudly. "What about this one?" Kato pointed to a ring in a separate box.The only thing that seems to be different is that the metal part feels solid and solid. "This is the first trial product made by Xinkai, and it should be said that it is the starting point of our company."

"Made? Did she make it herself?" "No, I heard that the maker is a craftsman who is closely related to her, not a professional, but an ordinary worker engaged in metal processing. Xinhai commissioned him to do it. The craftsmanship is excellent. I heard that even Huawu was amazed by it. " "Oh." Kato was not very interested in this topic, but a certain part of the conversation moved him.Before he could figure it out, the door inside opened, and the young woman from just now came back. "There is a shop called '' on the basement of this building. The president said please wait for her there."

The designated store is not a cafe, but an Italian restaurant.As soon as he walked in, a man in a black uniform appeared and asked if he was Mr. Kato.He nodded in surprise.The man led him to a table inside.It seems that Mito Shinkai has already made arrangements. "What would you like to drink?" "No, don't use it for now. I want an ashtray." "clear." When the cigarette was half burned, Xin Haimeifu appeared.The moment he saw her just now, Kato even forgot to bow his head.She has changed. Although she is wearing a simple gray suit, her whole body exudes a luxurious temperament, her face is also radiant, and she looks full of confidence.Kato thought, if they met by chance in other places, they probably wouldn't recognize each other.

"Long time no see, Officer Kato." Meifuyu smiled and sat on the opposite chair. "Long time no see. Sorry to disturb you while you were working." "It's okay. Have you had lunch yet? If you don't mind, let's have it together." Meifu's almond eyes gleamed alluringly. Kato quickly looked away. "No, I just want to ask you a few things, just have a cup of coffee." "Then let's have a cup of coffee with cream cubes." She called the man in black uniform and ordered coffee. Kato felt that he was being led by the nose by this woman.This woman consciously wanted to restrain herself, and he thought there must be an attempt in it.

"You have achieved such a great success, everything depends on the future development, and many people say that I am too reckless." "Aren't gemstone shops and beauty salons all very successful?" "At the moment, but you can't relax. You can smoke, I don't care." "Then you're welcome." He lit the second one, took a few breaths slowly, and looked at her again.She still has eyes that can seduce people's souls. "That's right, I'm investigating Zeng Wo Xiaodao's disappearance." Meifu widened her eyes. "Mr. Kato is in charge of this matter?"

"It's not about being responsible, it's just about helping." She nodded. "That's very lucky. Kyoko has strong backing this time. So, you're here today for this purpose?" "yes." "That's really not enough to eat." The coffee was brought and she took a sip.Lips are still as charming. "I heard that you made an appointment to meet Mr. Zeng Wo. It seems that Mr. Zeng Wo is holding a photo of you and your parents." "Yes. I have some regrets, but if you just give me a photo, you can mail it." "Why do you regret it?"

"I think, if he hadn't made an appointment with me, my husband would definitely have gone home that day, and maybe this kind of thing wouldn't have happened." "Do you think Mr. Soga was involved in anything?" "there has never been." "Have you heard your father mention Mr. Zeng Ga? Zeng Ga is his subordinate." Meidong shook her head. "Father never talked about the company, as if he didn't have too many good memories." It seems to be talking about the problem Sugawara mentioned. "What clues can you provide about Mr. Zenga's disappearance? Did he say anything that made you feel strange?"

"As I said just now, we didn't have any contact before we agreed to hand over the photos to me. Even if I ask you to provide clues..." "I heard that Mr. Zeng took a lot of trouble to find you. How did he finally find out your contact address?" "I'm also very curious about this. I would ask him when I wanted to meet." Meifuyu spoke without the slightest hesitation, and Kato couldn't tell the truth from the fake. "The agreed meeting place is Osmanthus Hall in Ginza, did you designate it?" "yes." "Why did you choose that place?"

"I think it's easy to find there. Any questions?" "No, just asking for the sake of prudence." Kato asked a few more innocuous questions.I didn't expect to get any useful information from her. I came here today to observe her reaction through contact. Kato ended the question appropriately and left the restaurant.He seems to have captured something that has no tentacles, but the outline has not yet appeared. Out of the building, he looked back again before hailing a taxi.At that moment, a flash in his mind. Skilled craftsmen! In that stench incident, regarding the poisonous gas emission device, the Scientific Research Institute came to the same conclusion, saying that it was done by a person specialized in metal processing. He was about to organize his thoughts again when the cell phone on his chest rang.He took it out impatiently.As expected, it was indeed Nishizaki who called, saying that there was a case and asked him to go back quickly. It seems that I am going to be busy with those boring things again.Kato tilted his face and raised his hand towards the empty taxi. Note:
